About this listen

In this gripping - and sometimes terrifying - account, former South African Police Service (SAPS) head profiler Dr Gérard Labuschagne, successor to the legendary Micki Pistorius, recalls some of the 110 murder series and countless other bizarre crimes he analysed during his career.

An expert on serial murder and rape cases, Labuschagne saw it all in his 14 and a half years in the SAPS. He walks the listener through the first crime scene he ever attended, his arrest of the Muldersdrift serial rapist, his experience as the head of the task team mandated to catch the Quarry serial murderer, his involvement with the Brighton Beach axe murders and more. Despite often being stymied by a lack of resources, office politics and political interference, Labuschagne and his team were always determined to get their man - or woman, as in the Womb Raider case. The Profiler Diaries is a fascinating - and often hair-raising - glimpse into what it was like to be a profiler in the world’s busiest profiling unit.

A must listen for anyone working in the field of investigations. The cases were well presented and the investigative process was quite interesting to hear. I am looking forward to the second book.

Looked forward to this but was so disappointed. Decided to return it. There is no structure or interesting facts or insights. It is hard to believe that the author, who seems so disinterested in crimes, criminals, victims and everything and everyone other than himself, has played a role in solving crimes at all.
